NEVER operate the bender in an explosive atmosphere.
NEVER operate the bender in wet or damp locations.
DO NOT expose the bender to rain.
ALWAYS disconnect the bender from the hydraulic pump before
servicing and when not in use.
ALWAYS inspect the bender before operating. Replace any
damaged, missing or worn parts. Check for alignment of moving
parts, binding of moving parts, breakage of parts and any other
conditions that may effect its operation.
NEVER alter this equipment. Doing so will void the warranty.
ALWAYS keep hands and feet away from pinch points such as
bending shoes, follow bars, saddles, conduit and other moving parts.
ALWAYS use appropriate bending shoe, follow bar and saddle for
the size conduit to be bent.
ALWAYS keep conduit under control when unloading.
ALWAYS keep the path of the bending conduit clear of
obstructions. Make sure all obstacles are clear of the bending
path BEFORE you bend the conduit.
ALWAYS wear approved safety glasses when the bender is
in operation.
ALWAYS wear proper apparel. Do not wear loose clothing, gloves,
neckties, rings, bracelets, or other jewelry which may
get caught in moving parts. Non-slip footwear is recommended.
Wear protective hair covering to contain long hair.
NEVER stand in direct line with the hydraulic cylinder while
operating or servicing the bender. Some parts of the cylinder
are under high pressure and can be propelled with considerable
force.

NEVER stand in direct line with the follow bar while operating
the bender. The follow bar is under high pressure during use
and can be propelled with considerable force.
ALWAYS read and understand the safety and operating
instructions supplied with your hydraulic pump.
ALWAYS keep children away. All visitors should remain a safe
distance from work area.
The bender and some accessories exceed 50 lbs. and will
require more than one person to lift, transport and assemble.
Only use the bender for its intended purpose as specified
in this manual.
ALWAYS maintain bender with care. Keep bender clean for
best and safest performance.
CHECK all hose connections prior to use and ensure they are
properly connected. Improper connections may not allow the
hydralic cylinder to retract after the bend is complete.

5. Adjust gauge rod such that gauge reads
zero when the cylinder is fully retracted.
NOTE: To adjust gauge rod, loosen
gauge rod adjusting nuts (see Figure
9A) and adjust rod such that zero (ø) is
flush with the top of the cylinder block
(see Figure 9B).
4. Place the hydraulic cylinder with the cylinder
mounting block between the frame sides as
shown in Figure 9. Insert the two cylinder
block pins into the appropriate frame side
holes for the size of conduit to be bent and
secure each with a spring clip.
NOTE: The hydraulic cylinder with mounting
block in Figure 9 is shown pinned in the
position for bending 4" conduit. The frame
side holes are marked to indicate where to
pin the mounting block for each size.
FIGURE 9
6. Rotate the frame and hydraulic
cylinder so the long side of the
cylinder mounting block is resting
on the floor (See Figure 9C). Then
place the clevis onto the end of the
hydraulic cylinder and secure with the
clevis retaining clip (see Figure 9D).

14. Make sure the saddle is flush with the front
of the follow bar. The bending mark on the
conduit should be aligned with the front
edge of the saddle insert lip (see figure 12A).
Rotate the pump valve lever to the closed
position and activate the hydraulic pump
until the shoe contacts the conduit and the
saddle and follow bar are snug.
15. DO NOT BEGIN BEND. Before bending — To
determine the amount of cylinder travel for
the size, type and degree of bend, refer to
the cylinder travel and bender calibration
information on page 16.
16. Activate the hydraulic pump to begin the
bend. (See figure 12B).
NOTE: DO NOT over extend the hydraulic
cylinder during operation. This will allow
hydraulic fluid to escape the cylinder and
may cause a hazardous condition.

18. Once the hydraulic pressure is released and
the hydraulic cylinder has retracted, remove
the saddle pin spring clip. Remove the saddle
pin and saddle. Next, remove the bent conduit
from the bending set-up.
17. When the desired degree of bend is
complete, rotate the pump valve lever
to the open position to release the
hydraulic pressure and the hydraulic
cylinder will retract.

90˚ BENDING INFORMATION AND CHARTS
NOTE: Current Tools Model #254 bending shoes and follow bars are designed
to make up to 90° bends with one extension of the hydraulic cylinder (one shot
bends). The Greenlee®Model #881CT CamTrack®* hydraulic bender shoes and
follow bars will fit the Current Tools Model #254 Hydraulic Bender.
To locate bending marks for a 90° bend with a desired stub length:
1. Determine desired stub length
NOTE: Check corresponding chart on page 15 for the type and size conduit
being bent and ensure the desired stub length is greater than the “minimum
stub length” shown in the chart.
2. From the end of the conduit, measure and mark the desired stub length on the
conduit (stub length mark). See figure 14B.
3. Subtract ”Deduct Length” from the stub length mark and make a second mark
(Bending Mark). See figure 14B.
NOTE: Check corresponding chart on page 15 for the deduct length of the type
and size conduit being bent
NOTE: Check corresponding chart for the type and size conduit being bent and
ensure the “Bending Mark” is equal to our greater than the “Minimum Distance
from End of Conduit.”
4. Align the bending mark with the lip of the saddle as shown in figure 14C.
Proceed with the bend as shown in the Assembly and Operating section.

CYLINDER TRAVEL AND BENDER CALIBRATION
1. The bender must be calibrated prior to bending. To calibrate, rotate the pump
valve lever to the closed position and activate the pump to advance the
hydraulic cylinder until the shoe, conduit and follow bar tighten up. Stop the
pump and DO NOT advance the cylinder far enough to start a bend.
2. Read the measurement on the gauge rod and compare that with the 0˚ (tight)
number for the appropriate conduit type and size on the charts below. If there
is a difference in these two numbers, that difference must be included in the
cylinder travel measurements for that type and size of conduit.
